I am extremely late reviewing this but I was here for a week over New Years 2015 and enjoyed my experience. The staff was generally friendly and helpful and had all kinds of events that anyone could take advantage of. I stayed in a private room with its own bathroom and it was clean, comfortable, and safe. I had no...

Ok so ignore the just travelled date as I actually went for 2012 Carnival and stayed a few nights here before moving into Lappa. Very helpful reception staff who managed to accommodate an extra night in a double room when we were supposed to be moving into dorms. Would stay again.

I live in Rio, but went there to test the hostel before recommed it to some friends from the USA.
Not only it is pretty comfortable, with a really kind staff and located in one of the most famous neighborhoods in Rio (Leblon!), but in my opinion its strongest point is its address.
Travellers must always pay attention in Rio...

I stayed at Zbra for a week, really nice hostel and amazing staff! Big thanks to Constanza for early check-in and Cristian for all advices. Breakfast is simple, but good, you can have everything you want, from cereal to sandwiches and fruits. The neighborhood is very very safe, only 1 block from the beach, close to bars and shops in...

We had a private room in this hostel and were not disappointed. Great location, very safe and excellent facilities in our private room. Staff were very helpful and made amazing caiprinhas. Great value for money and the loan of beach gear was very much appreciated.

We were a couple staying in z.Bra Hostel and stayed in room 13. Not sure if this was a bad omen from the start but our room was quite literally a prison cell. We had no day light, the walls were grey with no decor (not that i would have expected it in a hostel) and the only window we...

Free wifi, and the location was perfect. Leblon is a very charming and you can find everything there... The hostel is very cool, the decoration is nice, so it is...

The location is really good, there is free wifi and the air conditioning in the bedrooms are amazing!
The staff is really cute, they changed my room and after the room change (to 22) my stay was something else, it became WAY better.
There aren't many outlets, but they will lend you adapters.
Breaksfast is simple, but has everything you'd...

we stayed three nights in a double room. The room was simple, but practical and clean. Maybe a bit too expensive, but, I guess that applies to many products and services in Rio.
The staff were really great and helpful, and the location, in Leblon, is perfect.

We stayed at the Z.Bra Hostel during the world cup final. We wouldn't normally choose to stay in a hostel, but as it was the world cup final, the prices of all the hotels were extortionate! Even to stay here was a crazy price, but it was the most economic option for us. The hostel is really cool, the way...
